Trainman, you forgot to mention the fact that most bus stands have no provision for orderly queuing; neither have the majority of waiting passengers any idea how to form a queue, or any intention of doing so.
I, too , am retired, and on the very odd occasion I have taken the bus (and thankfully rarely at peak periods), there are times, at peak periods, when those waiting the longest must surely have missed a bus due to others pushing to the front.
I've noticed that cows going in for milking are better behaved than people getting onto a bus. says a lot for the human race!

Yea! and a lot of the buses don't pull into the actual bus stops, which means you cant get passed them

Even if they do, they just pull out without any consideration of any traffic passing on the right hand side, sometimes even without signalling
